Betty Wright - Mama lyrics

[Hook: Betty Wright] Mama, can you hear me? Mama Mama, can you hear me? Mama, can you hear me? Oh oh oh Mama, can you hear me? Mama Mama, can you hear me? Mama, can you hear me? Oh oh oh [Verse 1: Ace Hood] May eleven special, I was born in God's favor Mama gave birth in tears through that hard labour I just wanna thank you, ain't no way I could repay you Strongest woman that I know, you've been my motivator And just know I'll be everything that you said I would Only focus is hoping that all my family good A lot of ups and downs, a lot of hard times A lot of cloudy days, prayin for that sun to shine I was hard headed, granddaddy diabetic Lord bless her soul, granny kept a fool ready Five kids, three jobs, how you ever did it? Tryna make a livin, hustle got me reminiscin Daddy chose lust over all us Tell me what's the type of man who never kept in touch How do you feel? Mama showed me the real Can't revover them years, too much emotion to feel We was covered in bills, mama takin them pills Got er stressin for days, then why the f** ain't you here It's why I love er to d**h, she was dead when they left Prayin for me every day, Lord honor my steps I hope you hear my Lord, if yo mama's around Gotta cherish the love, gotta savor the smile Never go for nothing, gotta keep it 100 You are the epitome of a strong black woman You hear me? [Hook] (Verse) Dear mama I just wanna say I love you And if you left toda I don't know what I'd ever do Sayin this boy ain't nothing like yo mama Through the road blocks, fake friends and the drama Mo grilfriends and a chick named karma Real eyes realize I could call on er Any time of day, any time of night Been there from the start up on this journey called life Now I'm 24 and grown, tourin doin shows Thankful for it all, know it's been a bumpy road As we starin at my Rollie, started reminiscin Boy my bad a**, used to run from all them woopings But I understand, made me a better man You hear me mama told you would never want again I put my pain on the beat, you fed it all to the streets I'm a believer in me and I be livin the dream Oh Lord, black boy bout to get feel Who'da thought that I'd be countin up a couple mill? All them TV and them magazines were label deals Talkin bout the struggle, start to give a n***a chills God it's the press, people still hate Wasn't for my mama, don't know where I'd be today Lord have mercy Don't know where I'd be today [Bridge: Betty Wright] Ain't no love like mama's love Mama, can you hear me?
